Electromagnetic Spectrum & spectrum
meaning
 a band of colours, as seen in a rainbow, produced by separation of the
components of light by their different degrees of refraction according to
wavelength.
•the entire range of wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
noun: the spectrum
•a characteristic series of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation emitted or
absorbed by a substance.
•the components of a sound or other phenomenon arranged according to
such characteristics as frequency, charge, and energy.
 used to classify something in terms of its position on a scale between two
extreme points.

Brief Microwave History
 Maxwell (1864-73)
 integrated electricity and magnetism
 set of 4 coherent and self-consistent equations
 predicted electromagnetic wave propagation
 Hertz (1886-88)
 experimentally confirmed Maxwell’s equations
 oscillating electric spark to induce similar oscillations in a distant wire
loop (=10 cm)

Brief Microwave History
 Marconi (early 20th century)
 parabolic antenna to demonstrate wireless telegraphic
communications
 tried to commercialize radio at low frequency
 Lord Rayleigh (1897)
 showed mathematically that EM wave propagation possible in
waveguides
 George Southworth (1930)
 showed waveguides capable of small bandwidth transmission for
high powers

 development of the klystron
 MIT Radiation Laboratory (WWII)
 radiation lab series - classic writings
 Development of transistor (1950’s)
 Development of Microwave Integrated Circuits

Advantages of Microwaves
Increased bandwidth availability
• More bandwidth can be realized at higher frequencies. Bandwidth is critically
important because available frequency bands in the electromagnetic
spectrum are being rapidly depleted.
• Microwave signals travel by line of sight are not bent by the ionosphere as
are lower frequency signals and thus satellite and terrestrial
communication links with very high capacities are possible.
• Effective reflection area (radar cross section) of a radar target is proportional
to the target’s electrical size. Thus generally microwave frequencies are
preferred for radar systems.

Advantages of microwaves
 Power Requirments:
 Transmitters/Receivers power requirments are pretty low at microwave
frequencies compared to short wave band
 Transparency property of microwaves:
 Microwave frequency band ranging from 300 MHz -10 GHz are capable of
freely propagating through the ionized layers surrounding the earth as well as
through the atmosphere.

Application of microwave
 Various molecular, atomic, and nuclear resonances occur at microwave frequencies,
creating a variety of unique applications in the areas of basic science, remote sensing,
medical diagnostics and treatment, and heating methods.
 Today, the majority of applications of microwaves are related to radar and communication
systems. Radar systems are used for detecting and locating targets and for air traffic
control systems, missile tracking radars, automobile collision avoidance systems, weather
prediction, motion detectors, and a wide variety of remote sensing systems.
Microwave communication systems handle a large fraction of the world’s international
and other long haul telephone, data and television transmissions.
Most of the currently developing wireless telecommunications systems, such as direct
broadcast satellite (DBS) television, personal communication systems (PCSs), wireless
local area networks (WLANS), cellular video (CV) systems, and global positioning satellite
(GPS) systems rely heavily on microwave technology.
